FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Landscaping Advisory Committee 143 Report 144

145 Ms. Guardiano advised that the Committee is extremely happy with the new 146 landscapers. She advised that the plantings at the monuments on Laurel Road will be flipped 147 so that the confederate jasmine are the back drop to the flowers and the work will be done 148 at no charge. She advised that the landscaped areas at the fountain are declining due to 149 chlorine from the fountain and so the plants are going to be replaced with more tolerant 150 plants at no cost. Ms. Guardiano advised that the decline in the plantings at the large white 151 electrical boxes is due to irrigation issues which will be corrected. She advised that the 152 reason the plantings in the vases on the monuments are not flourishing is due to shade from 153 the trees which will be addressed. She advised that regarding the base of the monuments, 154 planting has been difficult due to wildlife eating the plants and so now another test can be 155 conducted by installing Mexican Heather with a purple-ish flower, the cost of the experiment 156 at two monuments is $450.00. Ms. Lentile inquired regarding the deer eating the new 157 plantings. Mr. Bennett of LMP advised that all plant material is susceptible to deer and rabbit 158 eating them. Ms. Guardiano advised that a second option for the monument plantings is to 159 install sod; she advised that they would further like to light up the monuments and the circle 160 by the fountain and would like to change the lights on the Palms on the islands to bigger 161 lights; she advised that the money being saved by not landscaping the monuments would 162 make the lights affordable. Mr. McCafferty inquired as to the plants at the Laurel monument 163 that are not being eaten. Mr. Bennett advised that those are annuals so if the Board elected 164 to go with annuals, they will be spending the money on the rotations. Ms. Guardiano advised 165 that the money saved by not doing the annuals could be spent on the third island. She 166 distributed proposals in the amount of $42,000.00 for going up the Veneto, $24,000.00 for 167 the third island and $2,700.00 for the next annual rotation. Ms. Guardiano advised that the 168 circle of plants outside of the River Club that have the dwarf allamanda instead of standard 169 allamanda and to correct the mistake the cost would be $2,300.00. She advised that the 170 plants that have been installed grow quickly; and some people would like to see more plants 171 and are used to crowded landscaping but that requires a lot of maintenance. Mr. Bracco 172 advised that because the Board is just seeing the proposals for landscaping, a decision 173 would not be made today. He discussed the plantings in front of the monuments; he advised 174 that the dwarf ixora are not eaten by the deer and so would that be an appropriate monument 175 planting. Ms. Guardiano advised that the dwarf ixora will grow too large and cover the name 176 on the monument. Mr. Lusty asked that the Landscaping Advisory Committee provide a 177 priority list. Ms. Guardiano advised that the priority to the Committee is the third island. Mr. 178 Bracco recommended that the Committee review all of the proposals at the next Committee 179 meeting and then Ms. Guardiano send an email to the Board with the list. Mr. Lusty asked 180 that Landscaping be placed on the next agenda, he further discussed asking the landscaper 181 to trim trees that are on private property; he advised that limbs that hang over CDD property 182 can be vertically trimmed but trees that are only causing shade cannot be trimmed. Mr. 183 Kleinglass advised that he still wants to see a proposal to enhance the landscaping at the 184 entrance. Mr. Bracco advised that the Board previously asked for the proposal. Ms. 185 Guardiano advised that the Committee would rather do the third island rather than adding 186 to the entry. Mr. Kleinglass advised that he cannot support going forward until he can see 187 what can be done to enhance the entry. Mr. Bracco advised that he too would like to see 188 what can be done to the entry. Mr. Kleinglass inquired as to the new trees that appear to be 189


Page 5

leaning. Mr. Bennett advised that some are leaning and some have been fixed but they are 190 working on it. Mr. Lusty advised that the Board unanimously approved the proposal for the 191 entry landscaping. Mr. Kleinglass advised that he was not in attendance at that meeting and 192 had he seen the plan he probably would not have voted for it. Mr. Lusty clarified that all 193 Board members who were in attendance at that meeting voted for the entry landscaping 194 proposal; he advised the Landscape Committee provided a presentation and proposal and 195 the Board voted for it and the landscaper delivered as promised. Mr. Lusty advised that he 196 would like to move forward with the third island and allow time for the entry landscaping to 197 grow. Mr. Kleinglass inquired as to the direction for the Committee. Ms. Guardiano advised 198 that she will get a priority list from the Committee. Mr. Kleinglass asked that a list be provided 199 including what can be enhanced at the entry. 200 201 FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Recreational Advisory Committee 202

He advised that he is working on paperwork for the 231 transfer of common areas 6A and 6B, lake 49 as well as the large wetland. Mr. 232 Schappacher advised that Solitude is working on the lakes for Lennar and the CDD needs 233 pricing to transfer the lakes to the CDD.

Page 6

reaching out to experts and he will be going to the site to look at the areas again based 237 on the input received from the expert. Mr. Schappacher advised that the expert 238 recommended inserting a pocket knife or screwdriver into the area and if the area stands 239 up then it’s bad and that is when it is recommended to core out the area, cut off the top 240 and boil it to get ratios. He advised that he discussed with the expert a process of asphalt 241 rejuvenation; he advised that he is not sold on the process as it is more of a glorified 242 sealer. Mr. Schappacher advised that there is another product that is called asphalt 243 rejuvenation but have more up to date technology; a vendor is coming out the week of 244 February 3rd to review all of the spills to verify that the situation is a good candidate for 245 the product. He advised that the product is roughly $2.00 per square yard which is a less 246 expensive option as a fallback. Mr. Schappacher advised that the CDD is asking for an 247 amount of half of the remaining expected life of the roadways. Mr. Lusty asked if Mr. 248 Schappacher is attending the meeting. Mr. Schappacher confirmed he is attending. Mr. 249 Lusty asked what the cost is of the expert coming down. Mr. Bracco recommended 250 meeting prior to the meeting on the same day.

Mr. 255 Schappacher advised that he does not have pricing yet but he has found a vendor to do 256 the work; he advised it is two vendors, one to cut it out and prep it and the other to pave 257 it. Mr. McCafferty advised that he would like it taken care of before the rainy season. 258 259 Mr. Schappacher advised that regarding 185 Savona Way; because this is a small 260 isolated area, Aquatic Systems will put plants in at no charge. He advised that regarding 261 201 Medici, the sidewalk that was low, the work is complete. Mr. Schappacher advised 262 that regarding the entry striping, four bids have been received $1,801.98, $3,309, $5,982, 263 and $9,948. The Board approved not to exceed $2,000.00 for Triple A Striping and 264 Signage for the entry striping. Mr. Schappacher advised that regarding the tennis lighting, 265 he has conducted a visual inspection and they are showing signs of age, there is rust on 266 some of the posts and arms but it may be superficial but is unsightly, he recommended 267 getting it in the budget or reserves and consider LED as they are more cost efficient and 268 the price is coming down. Ms. Lentile asked if Mr. Schappacher is suggesting 269 replacement of the entire structure. Mr. Schappacher advised that he is recommended 270 switching the bulbs to LED but if that is not possible then replace them with LED. Mr. 271 McCafferty recommended having the company doing the street sign posts also do the 272 light poles. Mr. Lusty advised that he would like a professional opinion on the structural 273 integrity of the light poles. Mr. Schappacher advised that he is not a structural engineer 274 and recommended conducting a visual inspection.

Mr. Schappacher advised that he is working 279 on putting together the contract and bid packages for the final phase of the bank repair; 280 he advised that the vendor agreed to hold his prices and in the overall bid the pricing was 281 $251,000.00 versus $306,000.00 and so that’s a $50,000.00 difference. Mr. Schappacher 282 advised that regarding the yard drains; he has a breakdown of pricing and so it would be 283


Page 7

easy to break down the cost per homeowner. He advised that there was a meeting with 284 the City regarding the Lennar tree planting, the plan has been approved and all trees will 285 be planted on the golf course. Mr. Schappacher advised that proposals have been sent 286 to Mr. Livermore regarding the computer program for the irrigation system; Hoover has 287 advised that the software program needs to be updated although the concern was would 288 the updated software be compatible with the pumps and they will but if more replacement 289 of the equipment and parts is done, the program isn’t necessarily compatible with the filter 290 system.

Mr. Lusty asked for clarification on upgrading the software and whether 293 the computer also needs to be upgraded.

Mr. 298 Schappacher advised that FP&L does not want any excavation under the power lines and 299 so he is working to determine if piping the drainage to the other side of the street will work 300 and if the ditch will work as a retention area. Mr. Lusty asked for an update for the next 301 meeting. Mr. Schappacher advised that he will make a resubmittal and is hoping for a 302 recommendation from FP&L to move forward and typically when FP&L makes that 303 recommendation then it will go through. 304 305 Mr. Lusty advised that the wall at the back of the community was repaired last year 306 and when the reserve study was updated he had a discussion with the reserve study 307 company who advised that the wall had long life in it; he advised that the wall has 308 deteriorated behind his home bad enough that there are chunks of wall falling off and 309 rebar is exposed and so repairs may be needed sooner than anticipated. 310 311 Ms. Lentile inquired as to why it took so long for FP&L to identify the concerns they 312 now have. Mr. Schappacher advised that he is unsure of where the breakdown in 313 communication happened. Mr. Kleinglass asked if the plan still needs to go through the 314 City. Mr. Schappacher advised that the City will not review until FP&L has signed off. 315 316 The Board took a recess at 11:25 a.m. and was back on the record at 11:40 a.m. 317 318 EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Consideration of Solitude Lake 319

management Proposal for Semiannual 320 Water Quality Testing 321

322 Ms. Lentile advised that she is a member of an ad-hoc Committee that has been 323 formed for clean water, to test the water leaving the community to the larger water way. She 324 advised the committee is concerned with the amount of nitrogen and phosphate going into 325 the waterways and so they have asked Solitude for a proposal to test the water leaving 326 Venetian; the water is being tested annually but they are asking for semi-annually. Ms. 327 Lentile advised they have asked that Solitude test six points of outflow, twice a year, at 328 $3,000.00 annually. She advised that she believes that the proposal includes the driving 329 range lake although she is working to confirm. Mr. Bracco advised that the lakes are 330


Page 8

identified on the proposal; 2, 4, 16, 31, 42, 49. Ms. Lentile asked Mr. Livermore if the 331 proposal includes the driving range lake. Mr. Livermore advised that he does not believe so. 332 Ms. Lentile advised that Solitude also maintains the Lennar lakes although she does not 333 know if they are testing them. Mr. Lusty asked if this testing is being conducted at all right 334 now. Mr. Bracco confirmed the testing is being done once a year. Ms. Lentile advised that 335 the last test results were very good and Venetian is in the safe area. Mr. Bracco asked for 336 the reason for testing twice per year. Ms. Lentile advised just to make sure. Mr. Lusty asked 337 what is in the budget for the testing. Ms. Blandon advised that she believes it is part of the 338 current service agreement with Solitude. Mr. Bracco inquired as to the current annual cost. 339 Ms. Lentile advised that she believes it is $1,500.00. She advised that Mr. Jones is 340 concerned about the driving range lake and she thought the driving range lake is being 341 tested. Mr. Craychee advised that the driving range pond is a pond that is completely 342 separate from all other ponds, it essentially has no outflow, which is where the testing is 343 conducted, the pumps pump the water to the irrigation system. Mr. Bracco advised that the 344 driving range does not apply. Mr. Tom Jones of the POA advised that the concern with the 345 driving range lake is that the City of Venice has moved to an advanced water treatment to 346 reduce the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus in the reclaimed water sent to the 347 Community and testing that water to know what phosphorus level and nitrogen level is 348 importance to the golf course because depending on what is coming out of that lake for 349 nutrients determines what goes on to the golf course as far as nutrients so the load can be 350 varied; the Golf course manager is not clear as to what testing the golf course is doing and 351 so the proposal was for the CDD and the Golf course can share in the testing of the golf 352 course lake to ensure the community is not getting too much nutrients. Ms. Lentile advised 353 that her contact at Solitude has responded and advised that the driving range lake is not 354 included on the proposal. Mr. Jones advised that the outfalls are key for what’s leaving the 355 community but the driving range lake is key for what’s going on the lawns and then flow into 356 the lakes, so they are combined. Ms. Lentile advised that she agrees; however, the outflow 357 is being tested and is testing good. Mr. Bracco advised that is two different things and so 358 the Board should deal with the Solitude proposal and then deal with the golf course lake 359 separately. Mr. Lusty advised that the proposals need to be separate and if the driving range 360 is to be tested then the golf course should share in that cost. Mr. David Jackson advised 361 that he believes there is an existing agreement related to the driving range lake and so that 362 agreement should be revised to include the testing. Mr. Lusty advised that in dealing with 363 the proposal contained within the agenda, he does not see the benefit of increasing the 364 testing to twice per year if the results of testing annually are good and so he would like to 365 see a proposal for annual testing. Mr. Bracco advised the CDD currently has an annual 366 contract for the testing. Ms. Lentile advised that the Committee wants to do their due 367 diligence and ensure that the Community is truly green and is doing everything in their power 368 to make sure. Mr. Bracco advised that the District has historically used annual inspection 369 and has historically done quite well and so he is questioning why we would want to do the 370 semi-annual testing. He advised that the CDD should continue doing what has been done 371 historically. The Board agreed to not entertain the proposal. 372 373 NINTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Discussion Regarding Welcome 374

Center 375 376 Mr. Kleinglass spoke regarding whether it is in the best interest of the CDD to meet 377


Page 9

with Lennar to discuss their intentions for the Welcome Center and possibly the Golf Course, 378 although his bigger interest is the Welcome Center. Mr. Bracco inquired as to whether Mr. 379 Kleinglass is suggesting that Lennar attend a Board meeting to discuss this with the Board 380 and the Community. Mr. Kleinglass stated either that or with the Board; he advised that 381 some time has gone by and nothing is happening and before the rumor mill takes off it may 382 be in the CDD’s best interest to be proactive. Mr. Bracco advised that last year at the 383 Community Meeting, Mr. Tony Burdett stood up and spoke to the Community; he 384 recommended having one of them attend a meeting to speak to the Board. Discussion 385 ensued regarding the zoning and possibilities of the future of the Welcome Center. Ms. 386 Blandon advised that she will reach out to Mr. Burdett. Mr. Kleinglass advised that one 387 resident commented on the proposal for pool pavilion inquiring as to purchasing the 388 Welcome Center. Ms. Payton advised that she spoke with Mr. Burdett regarding the 389 Welcome Center and she would like to see the board establish an ad-hoc committee. A 390 realtor has told her that the offices can be rented out for approximately $1,000.00 per room 391 and there are six of them. Mr. McCafferty advised that if the CDD were to purchase the 392 Welcome Center it would lose $22,000.00 as that assessment would fall off the tax roll and 393 so revenue would decrease. 394 395 TENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Consideration of the Minutes of the 396

Board of Supervisors’ Meeting held on 397 October 14, 2019 398

399 Ms. Blandon presented the minutes of the Board of Supervisors’ meeting held on 400 January 13, 2020 and asked if there were any additions, deletions, or corrections to the 401 minutes. Mr. Kleinglass pointed out that in line 505, he made the inquiry, not Mr. 402 McCafferty. 403 404

422 TWELFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Review of December 2019 Financials 423 424 Ms. Blandon asked if there were any questions related to the financial statements. 425 Mr. Lusty inquired as to an annual budget column being added to the River Club 426 financials. He advised it appears we are running high on employee meals. Ms. Payton 427 advised that there were a lot of extra meals in December and January due to events and 428 employees working double shifts. Mr. Lusty inquired as to the amount of budget spent on 429 chemicals. Ms. Payton advised that it may be due to the extra events requiring extra 430 cleaning. Mr. Lusty inquired as to maintenance contracts. Ms. Payton advised that is due 431 to last year when she wanted to bring the housekeeping inhouse but was unable and so 432 there is still a contract although she budgeted the fees in employee salaries, she advised 433 that there are also contracts for air conditioning and kitchen maintenance. Ms. Payton 434 advised that she is keeping an eye on overtime to ensure that the employee salary line 435 continues to decrease. Mr. Lusty addressed the Christmas Bonuses. Ms. Payton advised 436 that she will ask ICON. Mr. Lusty inquired as to the negative variance in Tennis revenue. 437 Ms. Payton advised that the Tennis Shop has no goods to sell. Mr. Lusty inquired as to 438 why the budget number is still so high. Ms. Payton advised that that line item may have 439 been missed. Mr. Lusty asked that Ms. Payton be cognizant of the amount of money 440 being spent on laundry. Ms. Payton advised they are looking at ways to decrease that 441 item. Mr. Lusty advised that the budget is way behind plan on the Food and Beverage. 442 Ms. Payton advised that the last two years, October, November and December budget 443 was never reached but it was made up quickly once season started. Mr. Lusty inquired 444 as to the overage on salaries and wages for the line cooks. Ms. Payton advised that it 445 may be the quarterly listing of benefits. Mr. Lusty inquired as to chemicals for food and 446 beverage. Ms. Payton advised that is for washing the dishes. Mr. Lusty advised that 447 operating supplies are over budget; he advised that since this is an item that is 448 consistently over budget then the budget needs to be increased next budget cycle. Ms. 449 Payton advised that she will check the coding. 450 451 Mr. Lusty inquired as to when the final payment from Sarasota County will come 452 in for tax roll collections. Ms. Blandon advised that she will inquire and report back to the 453 Board. 454 455 Mr. Lusty inquired as to why are there banks with a low balance. Ms. Blandon 456 advised that she will inquire with Mr. Brizendine and report back to the Board. He noted 457 a correction needed to the First American Government Obligation Fund percentage. Mr. 458 Lusty discussed his displeasure with paying 45 basis points as an expense ratio. He 459 inquired as to a debt service payment that should have been due in November as well as 460 the $160,811.00 due from other funds on the River Club fund balance sheet due. Ms. 461 Blandon advised that she will send Mr. Lusty the schedule. Mr. Lusty inquired as to the 462 ($12,542.00) on the ICON balance sheet on the asset side.

On a Motion by Mr. Bracco, seconded by Ms. Lentile, with all in favor, the Board Accepted the Consent Items, for the Venetian Community Development District.

476 FOURTEENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Staff Reports 477 478

A. District Counsel 479 Mr. Jackson advised that regarding the discussion on changing the age for 480 use of the River Club Spa, the Fair Housing Act does prohibit discrimination 481 on the basis of familial status interpreted to prevent rules that prohibit 482 children from using certain community facilities. Mr. Bracco asked if the rule 483 can be that children must be accompanied by an adult. Mr. Jackson advised 484 that it should not be enforced as “without adult supervision” as that kind of 485 qualifier is prohibited. Ms. Payton advised that she has done a lot of 486 research on this subject and HOA’s are being sued all over the Country. 487 She advised that she found a website where they are circumventing verbally 488 using the word prohibited, but we could come up with verbiage that the River 489 Club asks that you not have your children under a certain age in the hot tub. 490 Discussion ensued. Ms. Payton advised that she will find some verbiage to 491 send to Counsel and Staff for review. Mr. Lusty cautioned Ms. Payton 492 regarding placing restrictions as it is a personal responsibility issue. 493 494 Mr. Jackson advised that regarding the mailbox painting; Mr. Cohen sent a 495 demand letter to Burnett for $7,799.41 for over payment and approximately 496 $7,000.00 for pressure washing that will have to be redone; and Burnett 497 asked for additional time, Burnett finally got back to Mr. Cohen on Friday 498 offering to repay the $7,799.41 for over payment. Mr. Jackson advised that 499 Burnett said they will not repay the charges associated with the pressure 500 washing and further advised that they will honor the warranty on the 68 501 boxes that have been completed in exchange for a release. Mr. Jackson 502 advised that Mr. Cohen has recommended accepting the offer. Mr. Bracco, 503 Mr. McCafferty, and Ms. Lentile agreed. Discussion ensued regarding the 504 power washing that was conducted at the recommendation of the painting 505 manufacturer. 506

507


Page 12

On a Motion by Mr. Bracco, seconded by Mr. McCafferty, with all in favor, the Board Accepted the Burnett Offer of $7,799.41 and Approved Execution of the Release, for the Venetian Community Development District.

508 Mr. Lusty inquired as to a sign post contract. Ms. Blandon advised that a 509 draft has been received and she sent back some comments related to 510 payment terms, retainage, and adding verbiage related to weather delays. 511 She advised the next step is to send it to Charlotte County Painting for 512 execution. 513 514 Ms. Payton asked for clarification regarding the River Club Rules and 515 Regulations related to homes that have various generations and relations 516 and being River Club members as it discusses that there may be no more 517 than six resident users and being required to pay for more than four 518 members. She advised that there are several homes where multiple couples 519 own homes together or parents and children own homes together and 520 whether or not four adults in one home can be members without paying for 521 additional membership. Discussion ensued. Mr. Jackson advised that it 522 seems that if four adults are owners then those four can be the members. 523 Mr. Lusty advised that in his opinion the adults don’t necessarily need to be 524 owners, he believes that having familial relationships needs to be allowed. 525 Mr. Bracco asked what is being lost by allowing them to have memberships. 526 Mr. Lusty advised that the loss would be $3,800.00 membership fee. Ms. 527 Payton advised that an exception needs to be made somewhere regarding 528 children who are over twenty-two years of age but will always live with their 529 parents. Ms. Payton advised that regarding the homes that are owned by 530 an LLC or something similar, she feels that only persons who live in the 531 home should be allowed to be members. Mr. Lusty advised that if you 532 adhere to the familial tie then you get around the corporate or LLC attempt 533 to circumvent the rule. Ms. Payton inquired as to enforcing children over 534 twenty-two years of age; would the children living at home past the age still 535 be allowed to be a member. Mr. Lusty advised that if you want to enforce 536 an age rule related to children then possibly use the same age as insurance, 537 twenty-six years old. He further recommended not having an age limit for 538 the child of an owner. Mr. Jackson also recommended discretion of 539 enforcement. The Board asked that Ms. Payton get with Mr. Sandomenico 540 and come back to the Board with suggested changes. Mr. Kleinglass asked 541 that the proposed revision be sent to the Board in advance of the meeting 542 so that they have time to review prior to the meeting. 543 544

B. River Club 545 Ms. Payton advised that a new address has been established; the Tennis 546

Office is now 506 Veneto Boulevard so she will be moving forward with 547 obtaining the additional liquor license. 548

Mr. Lusty inquired as to the status of the City Water refund. Ms. Payton 551 advised that she has not done that but will be working on the letter. 552

553 Mr. Lusty inquired as to the status of the new phone system. Ms. Payton 554

advised that if internet service was not available, the emergency protocol 555 would be for the phones to be forwarded to a cell phone of choice which would 556 be her phone. She advised that their current phones rely upon the electricity. 557 Mr. Lusty advised that he is aware that the PBX relies on electricity but it 558 should also have a power back up. Mr. Lusty advised that the VOIP system 559 forwarding calls to Ms. Payton’s cell phone is not ideal; he further advised that 560 the VOIP phone will not work if internet goes down and today the internet is 561 down. He suggested that Ms. Payton not switch to the VOIP system and 562 instead see if a land line option is available. 563

564 Mr. Lusty inquired as to the status of the grease trap cleaning pricing. Ms. 565

Payton advised that the company will have to come out to clean the traps and 566 then determine the monthly pricing, she further advised that the $900.00 paid 567 previously was due to the amount of grease removed. Mr. Lusty 568 recommended that Ms. Payton inquire as to the expected monthly cost. 569

570 Mr. Lusty inquired as to the proposal from Benchmarking to have them provide 571

a presentation to the Board. Ms. Payton advised that she is hoping to have 572 them come in at no charge to provide a general presentation on how to have 573 a plan in looking to the future for the club. Mr. Bracco advised that he is only 574 interested if the presentation can be done at no charge. 575

576 Mr. Lusty inquired as to the status of the A/C balancing. Ms. Payton advised 577

that she believes they are 100 percent ready for the balancing although Mr. 578 Coy is still hesitant as he said that everything that has been done is part of the 579 balancing. Mr. Lusty advised that as long as it meets ADA requirements then 580 there is no reason to have the balancing conducted. Ms. Payton advised that 581 she will ask Mr. Schappacher to review the current status of pressure on the 582 doors. 583

584 Mr. Lusty inquired as to the status of the Wood Pecker damage repair. Ms. 585

Payton advised that it is on the maintenance man’s to do list and she hopes 586 he will get to that. Mr. Lusty asked for a report on the status at the next 587 meeting. 588

589 Mr. Lusty inquired regarding obtaining a commitment in wiring for no charge 590

of remediating Committee meeting minutes. Ms. Payton advised that she has 591 received an email confirming it will be done at no cost and she hopes to have 592 the minutes posted prior to the next meeting. 593

594 Mr. McCafferty inquired regarding pest control issues at the tiki bar. Ms. 595

Payton advised that the pest control issues have been remediated. 596 597


Page 14

Mr. Kleinglass inquired as to whether the removal of the fitness fees have 598 caused any issues at the fitness center. Mr. Sandomenico advised there have 599 been more people placed on the waiting list for classes but otherwise no 600 issues. 601

602 C. Field Manager 603

Mr. Livermore advised that Solitude was on site last week to review the bull 604 rush in the pond behind the River Club as residents are unhappy with the 605 appearance of the bull rush. Solitude has advised that the lake is healthy 606 and has provided a price of $1,815.00 to cut the bull rush down and to have 607 it removed is $3,300.00 although it will grow back whether is it cut back or 608 removed. Mr. Livermore recommended not removing or cutting back the bull 609 rush. Ms. Blandon cautioned against setting a precedent; she further 610 advised that it is a beneficial plant for the health of the lake and the bank. 611 Ms. Lentile recommended not cutting or removing the bull rush. The Board 612 concurred. 613 614 Mr. Livermore discussed the cost of gate arms and repairs; he advised that 615 he is researching ways to reduce damage to the gate arms. Mr. Lusty asked 616 if the residents who break the gate arms are asked to pay for the damages. 617 Mr. Livermore advised they do when they are able to identify who caused 618 the damage; he further recommended installing speed bumps if approved 619 by the fire department, installation of a stop sign, better lighting or a 620 combination of those options. Mr. Bracco inquired as to which gate is hit 621 most often. Mr. Livermore advised the back gate and the outbound right-622 side gate. Mr. Kleinglass recommended providing education to the 623 residents regarding the costs associated with damage to the gates. Mr. 624 Livermore advised that speeding is the main issue with the damage. Mr. 625 Lusty advised that speeding within the community has not decreased; he 626 reviewed the speeds contained within the reports provided by Mr. 627 Schappacher. He advised that he inquired with the POA and they have 628 advised that a few notices have been sent out to speeders. Mr. Lusty 629 recommended brining patrol into the community to ticket speeders and 630 those who run stop signs at it will garner better results. Mr. Livermore 631 advised that he will continue to research possible way to prevent the gates 632 from being damaged. Mr. Lusty advised that he will also put something into 633 the newsletter as well as information related to the meeting at the 634 Community Center. 635 636 Mr. Lusty inquired as to the status of the irrigation modification at 511 637 Padova.

Call to Order

The meeting was called to order at 2:03 pm.

2. Establish Quorum

Quorum was established; all seven committee members were present.

3. Election of Committee Chair and Nomination of Co-Chair & Secretary

At the request of Bettye Smith, the Committee proceeded immediately to the election of the Committee Chair. Jill Pozarek confirmed her application for the position. Mrs. Pozarek was elected Committee Chair by unanimous vote of the Members. Then, Mrs. Pozarek nominated Peter Lisowski as Co-Chair, and Mr. Lisowski accepted the role. Subsequently, Mrs. Pozarek nominated Didier Van Den Berghe as Secretary, and Mr. Van Den Berghe accepted the role.

4. Public Comments

Two residents were present.

Mrs. Patricia Appolonia mentioned that due to heavy morning moisture, benches and court equipment are often wet and should be wiped off in the morning. Charles Sandomenico replied that Joe, the new court maintenance personnel will be tasked with wiping off those equipment first thing in the morning.

Mrs. Appolonia also stated that the clay bags stacked in the court meeting area is a sore sight and should be removed. Charles Sandomenico reminded everyone that it is not an easy task to displace those bags as they weigh 80 lbs. He however said that those bags (1.5 pallets) will be moved to the far side of the parking lot behind courts 5 & 6 before January 31st.

Mrs. Nancy Spokowski stated that the water/ice dispensing machine is too often filthy and requires better cleaning to meet expected cleanliness standards. Charles Sandomenico took note of the issue and assured Mrs. Spokowski that the matter will be taken care of. A long discussion then ensued regarding the new ‘’Go-green’’ rule that has been put in effect lately and by which no Styrofoam cups are now available at that water dispensing machine. It was decided that ‘’eco-friendly’’ recyclable paper cups be considered for use in lieu of the Styrofoam cups. Mrs. Payton will investigate the cost of such ‘’eco-friendly’’ cups and will advise the committee of the financial impact of using those cups at the next committee meeting. A decision will then be taken regarding supplying those ‘’eco-friendly’’ cups to residents.

All Members agreed to add the above topics to the agenda, under the ‘’New Business’’ section.

6. Approval of Prior Meeting Minutes

The December 2nd 2019 committee meeting minutes were reviewed. Jill Pozarek motioned to approve the minutes as they were and Bettye Smith seconded. The motion passed with abstention (Alan Lands).

7. Old Business

7.1. Update on installation of new gym flooring and equipment

Charles Sandomenico circulated a sample of the flooring which has been selected for the replacement of the current flooring. All members acquiesced to the relevance of the new flooring material. Charles went on to explain that the moving of the equipment will occur sometime between January 15th and January 30th. The cardio equipment has been sold out and will be taken off the premises whereas the other equipment will be moved the aerobic studio. The renovation will then step in, strip the current floor and install the new flooring. Then, the remaining equipment will be moved back. Charles stated that overall, this entire process should not take more than one week.

7.2. Tennis Guest Policy (Mr. Tirgrath’s comment at the previous committee meeting)

The committee did not receive from Mr. Tirgrath a written request as recommended. However, the committee discussed this issue. Charles Sandomenico confirmed that during the ‘’Off-season’’ (May 1

st to Oct 1st), instructors Craig & Cliff do conduct tennis clinics on the VGRC tennis courts and non-residents do participate to those clinics, and those non-residents do pay a $10.00 usage fee to VGRC per occurrence. Charles also stated that there are still some clinics occurring at this time, during the ‘’On-season’’ but was not aware of any guest policy violation regarding this specific use of the courts.

7.3. Update on replacement of torn bleacher canopy on court 6 The canopy of the bleacher of court 6 has been repaired by Joe (no funding was available for replacement).

7.4. Swimming pool rules for events

Sue Rector reminded the members that she had had the terrible experience of witnessing a party held by a large group at the pool and that children were badly misbehaving, hence the request to consider rules for holding large parties at the pool. Denise Payton said that there were currently no specific rules for conducting large parties at the pool. The general rules (such as no outside alcoholic beverages allowed, kids not running etc…) simply apply to party people. She also mentioned that now, the pool is equipped with monitors which would identify misconducts and allow for rapid intervention to control the situation. Mrs. Payton did insist on the fact that no new rules should be considered for organizing large parties as there are already enough rules in place. Peter Lisowski suggested that residents be repeatedly informed on the current rules of conduct so as to increase compliance. He recommended that people who plan on having large parties should be asked to pre-inform management about it. Denise Payton agreed to include in the next email ‘’blast’’ to residents a section regarding best practices for large parties at the pool, including a request to inform management about their occurrence.

7.5. Memorial Plaque in tennis area

The family of Henry Azima suggested a Memorial plaque be put in place in the tennis pro shop. That plaque, dedicated to the memory of Henry, would serve as a posting of the League Champions of the previous year. The members deliberated on the issue and unanimously agreed that the plaque would be accepted as long as no cost is to be burdened by the VCDD for the acquisition and maintenance of the said plaque.

7.6. Guest access to fitness center during the Season

Mrs. Lentile confirmed to all members that during its last meeting, the VCDD Board refused to consider the proposition by this committee to prohibit non-residents’ access to the fitness center and to the gym before 12:00 noon, from November 1st to April 30th.

7.7. Posting rates for personal trainers

This subject was unanimously deferred to the next committee meeting.

7.8. Review fiscal year 2019/2020 budgets for tennis & fitness

Mrs. Payton explained to all members the budget figures for the tennis and fitness P&Ls for FY 2019/2020. In essence, the fitness activities consume about $130 k of the VCDD funds, which is $20 k more than initially anticipated as the fitness fees have been taken out of the income side after the Board voted in favor of the unconditional abolition of fitness fees! The tennis activities consume about $100 k of the VCDD funds. It was noted that the cost of maintaining the courts was maintained at a reasonably low level ($10k/year), thanks to the ways Charles Sandomenico conducts many maintenance activities ‘’In-house’’.

7.9. Tennis survey – Next steps

The draft of the tennis survey prepared in 2019 has to be approved by the committee before being dispatched to all community members. Since the 2020 Recreational committee includes new members who have not had the opportunity to review the survey draft, by motion from Alan Lands, seconded by Jill Pozarek, it was unanimously decided that the draft be dispatched to all new members of the committee within the next days, and that the voting on the final draft be postponed to the next meeting.

8. New Business

8.1. Review of the Recreational Committee Charter

The Recreational Committee Charter produced by the VCDD Board in July 2018 merits an eventual updating by the committee. Since the Recreational committee includes new members who have not had the opportunity to review the current Recreational Committee Charter, by motion from Jill Pozarek, seconded by Alan Lands, it was unanimously decided that this matter be postponed to the next meeting.

8.2. Meeting dates/times for 2020

Jill Pozarek motioned to propose that meetings of the committee will be held every first Monday of each month, at 2:00 pm. She was seconded Sue Rector and the members voted unanimously for those dates and times.

8.3. Recreational committee representative at the next VCDD Board meeting (Jan 13th

)

As Chair of the Recreational committee, Jill Pozarek will be representing the committee at the next VCDD Board meeting.

8.4. Update on the tennis Windscreen re-positioning (Billy Lachman’s request)

Mr. Sandomenico stated that the windscreens will be lowered on the parking side within the next 10 days.

8.5. Issues regarding the reservation system

Mrs. Payton confirmed that the reservation system was upgraded lately to include new mandatory ADA requirements. It had been agreed that guests and non-resident rules be added to the reservation page to enforce their compliance. Due to that extra text, users of the reservation system find it harder to use, particularly with mobile devices which are not optimally designed to allow for quick scrolling of text. Bettye Smith also reported that some of her acquaintances had seen the pre-holding status of their reservation (10 mn), ultimately not honored by the system, resulting in a flat loss of the reservation opportunity. Finally, it was also reported that users of the system made negative comments on the choice of colors used for reservation statuses. Mrs Payton stated that the service company managing the software may be able to make enhancements in the next release, which has not been planned yet.

8.6. Continuous formation of a puddle in the walkway between courts 3 and 5

Mr. Sandomenico acknowledged the issue and said that he will determine the root cause of the water stagnation and implement the necessary actions to resolve the issue within the next 30 days.

8.7. Standard format of the meeting agenda

Mrs. Payton recommended that in future meetings, the Manager’s report be positioned under the ‘’New Business’’ section instead of being at the tail end of the meeting. This recommendation is founded on the fact that many of the topics included in the Manager’s report already address topics in the ‘’New Business’’ section. This recommendation was noted by the Chairperson but no final decision has been taken on it.

8.8. ‘’Bringing CPR on the Courts’’

Concerned about recent events, Mr. Lands inquired about the possibility to have immediate CPR capabilities on the courts. Mrs. Payton replied by stating that over 85% of the VCDD personnel are trained on CPR practices. All tennis and fitness staff has undergone CPR training. She also pointed out that there are defibrillators available indoors in the River Club. Those defibrillators are portable and can


5

be easily taken to the court for use right on the spot. The defibrillators have very clear instructions on how they are to be used. No further actions are to be taken on this issue.

8.9. Susie Lentile’s position regarding the VCDD Board’s vote on eliminating fitness class fees

Mrs. Lentile volunteered to express her current thoughts and feelings on the VCDD vote to abolish fitness fees. Even though she did vote in favor of this resolution, she strongly feels that, among other things, the due process to make such a decision was not respected. She strongly believes that this subject should have been handed out to the Recreational committee for it to consider all repercussions and formulate an educated recommendation to the Board. She informed the members that she will formally rescind her vote at the next VCDD meeting and request that the fees be re-instated. In order to do so, she will request that the Recreational committee organizes a public hearing on the matter and subsequently presents a formal and thorough recommendation for the Board to vote on.

9. Manager’s Report

No Manager’s report was presented to the Committee at this meeting.

10. VCDD Liaison’s Report

No VCDD Liaison’s report was presented to the Committee at this meeting.

11. Adjournment

Since all matters of the meeting having been exhausted and no further questions arose from the audience, the Committee Chair motioned to adjourn the meeting at 4:00 pm, which motion was seconded by Alan Lands and unanimously accepted by the members. Minutes submitted by Didier Van Den Berghe, on January 8th 2020.

Discussion Items: Old Business:

A. Trivia Night: All in agreement there was too much time allowed after trivia questions to final response time. A 60 to 90 second interval should be enough time for participants to answer the questions.

B. Pasta Night: Chafing dish with a food item, such as lasagna, worked well for those that did not want to wait in line for pasta and topping selections.

C. Game Night: Will now be offered on Tuesday evenings from 4:00-9:00 pm due to Wednesday night sell out dinners. Each game participant will be charged a $2 voluntary fee.

E. Member Holiday Party: 550 plates served for the 5 course meal. More dance time was requested by members for this type of event.
